Missing plug and plug puller, useless!

by mswanson from on 2010-08-20
The ball came nicely packaged, but without the plug and the plug puller! If i didn't already have these items from a previously broken exercise ball from another company, this purchase would of had to been returned. The ball is a quality ball and very sturdy. Buyer beware.

Exactly what I was looking for.

by Richard E. Kane Jr. from Riverside, CA USA on 2010-07-27
I bought an exercise ball at a sports shop a few months ago and it was just massive, so I ordered this one hopping that it would be what I was looking for. And when it arrived and I got it inflated it was perfect. Using it just about everyday and I love it. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with a way to inflate it.

excellent vendor

Great product - great prices - fast shipping and delivery. What's not to like?

haven't used yet!!

by J. A. Mckinney from CT on 2009-06-14
I can't write a review...I haven't used it yet..but instructions for inflating, and the pump worked very well!!

small ball for small people

by Small Fit from on 2009-05-21
The thera band 45cm exercise ball is just what I needed. I have always worked with the 55cm, and it was not ideal. I am 4'10" and this is perfect. All of the exercises for toning and strenghtening are so much easier now that I have the right ball with which to work. Easy to follow inflation instructions and a clear and concise exercise program to follow.The recommended height/weight chart should be followed for the right fit.

This one is nice

by Eric Smith from San Francisco, CA on 2009-07-06
I bought a cheaper brand first and had to return it due to a worthless pump. This pump is slow, but simple and works fine, and the ball seems strong and durable. Sometimes you get what you pay for. I would recommend this ball.

A note about size: the size recommendations based on your height are only useful if you are sitting on the ball. I got this for ab workouts and I like the 55cm size even though I am 6'4", because it has a tight radius that allows my back to arch and get a good range of movement. If crunches are your primary use, I would recommend this size for a person of nearly any height.

SPRI exercise ball

by J. Adams from Canton MI on 2008-10-09
Same excercise ball as the ones I use at the gym and in my fitness classes. I've tried other ones that were flimsy and wobbly, but this one is the best.

best fitness ball around!!!

by C. Floyd from arkansas on 2007-07-04
i have been using my spri stability ball for 6 years. it is so much better than any i have used in health clubs- much sturdier, does not lose inflation...its versatilty is phenominal. it serves as a bench for free weights, is superb for ab work, and is a comfortable and ergonomically correcct chair at my desk. over the years it has been deflated and re-inflated dozens of times easily with the [included] pump. several times i misplaced the plug, and the spri company cheerfully and quickly sent me [free] replacements.. a definite 5 star product!.

Great Quality but......

by I. Irving from Arlington, TX USA on 2007-04-05
I purchased a ball for $10 from Wal Mart and didn't feel it had any stability and was very flimsy. The gym I use trains with the Spri brand so I thought this would be similar if not the exact ball. The quality was great, but unfortunately this is not the size I am used to hence the 3 star rating.

I am 5'5' and the recommended size is 55, but the 55 in my gym and the 55 I am looking at are 2 different sizes. I am sending this one back and ordering a 65 instead. I am not sure if they have a different product line that they use for professionals, but I am very disappointed.

This ball inflates to roughly double the size of a beach ball, and when seated you aren't high enough off the ground to do many of the moves effectively. Forget doing bridges, you might as well do them on the ground for all the height you get.

Gets the job done.

by Jenn from Grand Rapids, Michigan on 2010-05-16
You get everything just like the picture shows. The actual ball was a little different than I expected, but it gets the job done and seems to be of quality.

Great Ball!

by San Diego Mama from San Diego, CA on 2008-06-23
This exercise ball works great for me - as a desk chair. I spend a lot of time at my computer, since I teach online, and I decided that sitting in a chair is just too lazy. This exercise ball is perfect. It has stayed perfectly inflated now for about 2 weeks, with tons of use. The pump is great, better than the old style pumps that needed a special tip. The tip is built right in, you don't have to worry about losing it. And it also comes with a little fork-like thing when you need to pry out the plug and inflate or deflate the ball. I haven't yet checked out the video, but I plan to start using the ball for exercise, too.

Works for me

by Auskan from KS, USA on 2008-04-01
My trainer wanted me to get one of these. I looked on Amazon, found this one and ordered it. It wasn't the brand she suggested so I thought she might think I'd got an inferior product but in fact she said it was one of the best out there. I've had it a few months and it seems to be holding up well.

The sleek, compact design of the BOSU® Sport Balance Trainer allows for easy transportation and storage, and quick positioning for any type of workout. Available in sizes of 45cm and 55cm, the two additional sizes offer a variety of configuration and stance options, and complement the original BOSU® Balance Trainer. Each BOSU® Sport Balance Trainer is available in blue, and comes with a foot pump and exercise manual.

Appropriate for everyone from elite athletes to kids to weekend warriors trying to stay in shape, the Bosu balance trainer helps you strengthen and coordinate several major muscle groups, including the muscles you don't see. The Bosu targets your core muscles--the muscles around your abdominal and back area--while you perform a host of different workouts, from squats and bicep curls to lateral shoulder raises and hip extensions. As a result, you not only gain strength, trim, and tone, but also improve your balance and coordination along the way. In addition, Bosu training helps strengthen the mind, with thoughtful movement that requires the participant to not only be physically involved, but also "here and present" with the mind fully engaged. By combining physical and mental focus, Bosu training will boost your performance across a wide continuum of activities, including sports, recreation, and daily tasks. The Bosu balance trainer--which measures 55 cm and comes in blue--comes with a foot pump and an exercise manual.

Features

• Balance ball trainer for strengthening and coordinating core muscles
• Supports squats, bicep curls, shoulder raises, crunches, and more
• Strengthens, trims, and tones while improving balance and coordination

Bosu Balance Trainer

by badboy from scottsdale az on 2010-08-25
The Bosu Trainer is ok . There was no Manual included and the Packing was the last I ever saw. All corners are open . This box must be open so many times you can see it on the layers of the tape. It looks like the box was water damaged. |Very disappointed. | Amazon has done much better before !!!!

Great piece of exercise equipment... At the cost, this unit really provides a pay back and works so well with other equipment and routines..

Just as good as the pro version

by Laura from Michigan on 2010-04-24
I was a little concerned that the cheaper version of the Bosu wouldn't be as good as the pro version that I use in physical therapy. But personally, I don't see a difference between the two. This is the cheapest price I've seen for the Bosu, pump, and DVDs. I love my Bosu!

No Countdown Timer?

by Lockstep from on 2010-07-22
What kind of "Fitness" watch doesn't have a countdown timer.

I received this watch as a gift, and am very disappointed. The fact that you can't set a timer for 1 minute and have it countdown for an alarm to go off at 0 makes this watch pretty useless for any sort of interval training.

My $30 Timex Ironman does this, other than the look, I find little reason to wear the Suunto.

Waste of money.

Good enough

by Fabricio from on 2010-07-01

And it has a better design than the competitors.

by David from on 2010-06-27
I really wanted this HRM watch from Suunto to work, but after only 1 lite workout, the face was already marred. I may have bumped up against some equipment, but nothing that should have left a marked. I have two other Suunto watches, dive computers, and they are indestructible. These watches have been hit up against rocks and metal with some slight scratches to show for it. Bottomline, while the functionality is there, this watch is isn't worth the money due to the poor quality of materials used.

Moving Comfort Fiona Bra Moisture-wicking, quick-drying and breathable, with an inner structure that provides maximum support and comfort. Features: Polyester and Lycra shell Straps have front adjustment for custom fit 3 rows of hooks and eyes with 3 adjustments High impact

Moving Comfort's most popular sports bra, the Fiona features seam-free molded cups with one-way stretch powermesh that encapsulates the breasts for support and limits up and down movement. This means that you can maintain the shape of your bust, while still receiving the high level of support and movement control that you expect from a sports bra. Two-way stretch powermesh on the back of the bra provides extra-firm support, while front adjustable straps with flattering design lines and a concealed hook-and-loop closure provide a perfect fit and enhance support. The wide-banded back will not bite into your sides and is fastened with three plush-backed hook-and-eye rows. Bras with bands sized 40 to 44 have a fourth row on the band. The Fiona Bra is constructed with fabrics that manage moisture for high-intensity activities. Designed for high-impact sports, the Fiona features combined encapsulation and compression support. The encapsulation bra cup construction surrounds the breast to give support and shaping, protecting the breast tissue from horizontal, vertical, and circular motion during sports. Compression bra construction redistributes breast tissue to evenly press against the chest wall limiting overall motion. The Fiona is an exceptional sports bra, designed to flatter a woman's form, while offering optimum fit and comfort performance. Specifications: Seam-free molded cups One-way stretch Powermesh encapsulates in front Two-way stretch Powermesh in back Adjustable front straps Concealed front hook-and-loop closure on straps Three plush-backed hook-and-eye rows on band Fourth row on 40-44 bands Support Type: Compression: Bra cup construction that redistributes breast tissue to evenly press against the chest wall to limit motion Encapsulation: Bra cup construction that surrounds the breast to give support and shaping. Based on various degrees of impact, this structure helps to protect the breast tissue from horizontal, vertical, and circular motion during sports activities. Material Specifications: Body: 88 percent polyester, 12 percent spandex Interior Cups: 100 percent polyester Back Lining: Powermesh--83 percent nylon, 17 percent Lycra Front Yoke Lining: 90 percent nylon, 10 percent spandex Care Specifications: Machine washable Fasten the hooks before tossing them in the machine Hang dry Find Your Fit: Band: Should be slightly more snug than a lingerie bra. Make sure you can comfortably take a deep breath with the bra fastened on the middle hook. Be sure the band doesn't ride up in the back. If it does, the band may be too loose and/or the straps need to be adjusted. Cups: Adjust your breasts for a proper fit. They should be completely held within the cups without overflowing. Fabric should be smooth. Wrinkles or puckers indicate the cup is too big. Underwire should sit on your ribcage below the breast tissue and follow your natural shape. Straps: Should offer minimal stretch to reduce up-and-down breast movement. Wider straps will disperse the weight and feel more comfortable. Straps should not dig in or slide off your shoulders. Adjustable straps offer a more custom fit. About Moving Comfort: Two female runners founded Moving Comfort in 1977 before there were women's workout clothes. In the 30-plus years since the founding, the company hasn't strayed from its original purpose. Moving Comfort uses high-quality, performance fabrics that have the right amount of stretch, perfect quick-wicking moisture management, and a healthy amount of comfort--cut exactly for a woman's body. Moving Comfort follows the following guidelines in constructing high-performance athletic wear for women: Moving means moving: The how doesn't matter--running, walking, weight training, yoga, martial arts, skiing, snowshoeing, rock climbing, horseback riding, golf, tennis, basketball, volleyball, soccer, inline skating...Moving Comfort naturally understands and designs clothes for a woman's body, whatever that body was meant to do. Quality comes first: Moving Comfort understands the kind of support and freedom needed in clothing, and how that clothing should feel against the skin. The company knows what keeps women warm and dry when it's cold and cool and dry when it's hot. Knowledge, expertise and high standards shape the fit, fabric and function of every garment Moving Comfort designs. Fit affects everything: Keeping fit improves every aspect of a woman's life--reducing the incidence of heart disease, breast cancer, osteoporosis, depression, and drug and alcohol abuse. If a girl or woman is more comfortable when she's working out, she's more likely to keep at it. That's why Moving Comfort views its technical garments--and the great fit of each piece--as a means to encourage women to get fit and stay fit.

Best Bra I've found

by Laura A. Murphy from on 2010-08-27
I normally wear a 34DD, but I have one of these in a 34C and a 34D. The smaller one is the only thing that I can run in, while the larger one is perfect for spinning classes and more comfortable to wear. When you size down you do lose some of the separation that this bra is designed to offer, but since I've yet to find another bra that can provide separation and enough support, this is not too upsetting. It still beats a compression only bra.

Wonderful!!

by geeniusgirl from on 2010-08-19
This bra is the best sports bra that I have ever worn. It is comfortable, adjustable, and holds my boobs in place. I would definitely buy another one. Moving comfort knows what they're doing!

it's okay

by rena f trumbull from on 2010-08-18
It's comfortable and I like the adjustable straps. I just wish it were underwire so the girls couldn't slip through the bottom. It is very comfortable but I won't use it for high impact activities like running or volleyball but will use it for elliptical or walking.

Excellent bra for the money

by Lizzy from Seattle, WA USA on 2010-08-09
I am normally a 42DD. I took others advice and ordered a 40DD instead, and was very happy I did so. This bra really did the trick for me after many others failed. I am not a runner, but do some serious hiking and was very comfortable the whole time. Nothing pinches and my back and shoulders felt good even after wearing it for a whole day. This bra offers really good coverage, with no "spillage" out of the sides or top like some others I have tried. Adjustable velcro straps in the front are really nice as well!

Best sports bra I've ever owned

by Cheaply Chic from New York, NY on 2010-08-17
I absolutely love this bra and am back on Amazon buying more. I'm a 34DD but sized down to 34D with this, and it's perfect. This bra has firmly held the girls jiggle-free through skiing, mountain biking, running, and aerobics classes.

My lone complaint is that the thick material retains sweat, which can get pretty uncomfortable on long runs.

Excellent Buy

by Fitness Girl from NY, NY on 2010-06-24
This is a great shirt on or off sports bra that is stylish, still very supportive, but not flattening. I am loving this bra. It is also very true to size. The price was right. This was an excellent buy!

nice shape, pretty but not very functional

by Young Chang from scottsdale, az on 2010-06-17
It's nice shape and flattering. However, it retains sweat alot which makes it feel very uncomfortable after only a few minutes of working out for someone who sweat alot like me won't appreciate so much. I ended up buying three of these though.. 1st one wrong size, one pink/white, and one white/charcoal. no return policy due to sanitary reason, so choose the right size, you can't return it even if you get the wrong size.

awesome.

by M. Haas from on 2010-05-12
I'm impressed with this sports bra. I've never really been a fan of sports bras because of the horrible uniboob issue, this bra takes care of that problem though! There is some slight padding to help give your boobs some shape and it's overall pretty comfy. If you're in need spend a little more on this and invest in an excelent sports bra.

comfy

by Anna Shvets from on 2010-07-24
it is to stiff in some places, but did not bother me at all while running or climbing.

Great support - NOT wicking

by Mommy from Chicago from Chicago, IL on 2010-07-19
Great bra for running! Didn't feel too tight but kept my C cups from bouncing. The bra is thick (multiple layers of fabric). I ran 7 miles outside in 90 degree weather. When I took the bra off, it was soaked and weighed at least a pound! Does not wick moisture away as other bras do. I guess the multiple layers of fabric vs. breathability is the the price you pay for the support. Definitely a good choice for cooler weather running, but not the bra to use in the warmer months.

Gorgeous & Great Fit Too

by JoSaHo from on 2010-07-19
I threw away all of my sports bras because they were completely worn out. All were Champion bras that I've had for over 5 years so I knew Champion was a good brand to go with. I search on Amazon looking for the 'perfect' sports bra. I do believe I found it! I ordered it a size down like the other reviewers said to do and it fits perfectly - hardly any bounce at all and I am not small chested. I am a 34D and ordered the medium. My experience with bras of all kinds is that if it fits a bit too snug at first, after a few wearings, it will probably stretch to fit perfectly. I love that this bra has the clasp in the back so you can adjust it to fit perfectly. Love this bra! I'll probably be ordering another one. (The one I purchased is pink and the color is beautiful)!

Too big!

by Stephanie Sackett from Long Island, New York on 2010-07-15
I wear a 34D and this bra was way too big. If you have a thin frame order a size down.

Best sports Bra

by Olivia from B'dos. on 2010-07-06
I love this for running on the track, treadmill or any cardio activity - nothing moves but my boobs are not squashed up either. I am 34 D and got the 34 C - fits me without being too loose; however, if you are a full D, you may want to consider getting your true size

Great when it works

by Dee Cee from Milwaukee, WI on 2010-08-15
This is the second Polar hrm i've owned, the first being an old A-series model that just wouldn't die. after six years of pretty regular use, it finally died and because of the great use i got out of my a-series, i bought the FT7 as its replacement.

The watch itself works great - nice big lighted face that's easy to read, and it doesn't look too bad either. the problem is with the transmitter - it's far touchier than my old model. i frequently wear the watch and hrm all day, and that seems to cause the transmitter to stop transmitting info to the watch. the watch will say "check transmitter" and shows zeros instead of my heart rate. this usually isn't a problem; i just go and wet the transmitter and it starts back up - but it IS a problem when i'm in the middle of a workout and i look down for a quick status check and all i get is an error message.

i called Polar's customer service about this and they told me the transmitter (not the strap itself) needs to be cleaned - preferrably with a toothbrush to get into the grooves - and that will make it transmit continually. they also recommended washing the strap every five days or so - no problem. i did everything Polar recommended and i still have the same problems.

i'm thinking of trying another model - or maybe another brand.

Best Polar HR Monitor I have tried yet

by LoveMyHomeGym from Reisterstown, MD USA on 2010-03-13
I love this product! I have owned several Polar HR monitors. This one is by far the easiest to set up and use - yet still accurately tracks details on multiple workout sessions. The chest strap is a new design that is very comfortable. Only cloth touches the skin; the transmitter snaps onto the front of the strap. The transmitter on my old chest strap irritated the area of my skin were it rested. I have used this new monitor and chest strap combination during biking, step, walking, and strength training. I have not experienced any signal drops outs even when I am bending over. I love the option that allows me to see the heart rate or calories in a large font so that I just have to quickly glance at my monitor while exercising to see my progress.

Billed as the "future of fitness" and hawked by numerous celebrities, Billy Blanks's Tae-Bo actually deserves much of the hype it's receiving. A mixture of boxing punches and martial arts kicks, Tae-Bo is fun and easy. One of the best elements of this two-tape set is that the first tape (which is 40 minutes long), Tae-Bo: Instructional, lays out the movements you need to successfully complete a workout. Once you've mastered the steps, you won't have to fast-forward through half the tape to get to the workout, nor will your workout be slowed down by the repeated lessons. After you feel comfortable with the movements (and they're really quite easy to follow; nothing too complicated to trip you up), you're ready to move on to Tae-Bo: Basics, a 27-minute workout (5 minutes of warm-up, 18 minutes of Tae-Bo, and 4 minutes of cool-down) that will have your heart pounding and your body sweating. The only downside to this tape is the less-than-exciting music. Blanks, a seven-time World Martial Arts champion, is a superb instructor, providing encouragement and careful instruction (if you don't know by the end of the tape to hold in your stomach, that's no one's fault but your own). Not only is Tae-Bo great exercise for all levels, but the punches and kicks are wonderful for working out stress and aggression. This is the aerobics exercise video for people who are bored by aerobics. --Jenny Brown

good but better ones out there now

There's so much to choose from now that I'm sure there are better ones out there. These are high impact - not for the frail or weak for sure!

good workout

by K. Poat from New Jersey on 2010-04-22
I only got the one video--Basic workout--even though the picture includes the instructional with it. Not sure if it was a seller mistake (never heard back from them) or what. Love this basic workout--fun and challenging but I can still walk the next day without being sore! gets the heart and sweat going really good. Another good one on this same level is Tae Bo II Get Ripped basic workout. I lost 11 pounds in the last 6 weeks doing these videos!

extreme reviews

by Unni Aravindakshan from chennai, Tamil nadu India on 2010-07-16
Well - i have been using this and just looked up to write a review - look like it evokes extreme reactions -
answereing one of the questions in the one star reviews - No i dont know any body from the DVD program - i have been doing this for a couple of weeks - i find this extrmely good - and no i have not tried any other DVD so cant compare - long and short , i was looking for a no nonsese 10- 20 mins daily routine and i found it - going to stick with it for a while -

Still a good workout

by BrandonK from on 2010-07-16
Three might be a little low, but I can't quite give it four stars. I like the workouts, a TON of moves that really hit all the major muscle groups. I really feel a burn by the time I hit Round 3.

I was just hoping for something that was more MMA instruction. I'm a huge UFC fan and was looking for more along those lines, like detail on how to be a cage fighter, work with punching bags.

Again, can't complain about the workouts, they're good, no frills kind of exercises and I could see how doing them regularly would make a difference.

Just picked up BJ Penn's book Martial Arts The Book of Knowledge. It gives you tons of play by play moves. Guess that what more what I was expecting. If you want serious martial arts instruction, I'd go with the Penn book. If you want a strong workout, you'd be good with this DVD.

Lent to a Sergeant Major in the US Army

by Elizabeth Hoffer from Mililani, HI USA on 2010-05-06
I was pregnant when I bought this dvd and planned on doing the workout after I had the baby. I figured that my husband (A Specialist in the US Army) would do it in the meantime. Instead, he gave it to his SGM to try out. I didn't think we'd be lending it out for four months. He told my husband that it was a pretty good workout there were some moves on the dvd he was going to make the unit do for PT!
Now that we finally got it back I see what he means. I am a little out of shape just having had a baby a couple months ago, but I am getting a great workout each time I pop it in.
At first my husband and I thought it was going to be too easy and we were proven WRONG. My husband and I were breaking a sweat in no time. I've only been doing it for a week and I'm already feeling better, stronger, and less sluggish. I'm not going for the whole 'mma body' type personally, but I do know that if I continue to do this I will tone up fast!

Awesome Workout!

by Mary Therese from on 2010-04-11
I love this workout. The instructor is excellent. He provides great cues and is motivating without being over the top. I bought it based on earlier reviews, and they were right. The workout is tough but gives you a lot of options.

I had been looking at more traditional workout DVDs but decided to try something different. In the past, I have done aqua aerobics, yoga, and tai chi.

My husband is doing jiu jitsu at a local Gracie school and loves it. He showed the DVD to the instructor at school who said it was an effective workout. Watching my husband tone up is one of the things that inspired me to get into shape, and it gives us something in common. He had been playing tennis before and has actually said practicing martial arts is safer on his joints.

I am glad I bought this DVD. I feel like it is interesting enough to do regularly and is something I can stick with.

Challenging!

by K. Noble from Chicago, IL on 2010-04-11
Don't be fooled by the first round. I started doing the workout and thought it was going to be easy. What I didn't realize is that the warm up is just that--a warm up. The cardio starts to kick in with the first round. By the third round it's intense. Both workouts contain a lot different moves. Every round has 5 different moves that are repeated once. Almost none of the moves are ever repeated in later rounds making for a lot of variety.

By the third round you are switching from standing work to ground work and that's great for bringing your heart rate up. I am an intermediate when it comes to fitness and doing the championship round is about perfect for me. Beginners should definitely take advantage of the alternate moves. If you're advanced, you could do the championship round followed by the undercard in a single workout. But if you go that route, skip days to give your muscles a rest.

The DVD makes a point of not having additional exercise equipment. That's true, you could get by with soup cans for some of the resistance work. If you're stronger, you would benefit from having some dumbbells for the shoulder and arm work in the second workout.

If you are looking for a lot of variety and a solid workout that delivers, I recommend this one.

by L. Lagazo from Kauai, Hawaii, USA on 2008-12-01
This skin is easy to put on and also easy to remove. The clip thing doesnt work so well as the ipod is too heavy for it and the rubber stretches and sags. I just use it to protect my ipod so it's not bare and more prone to accidents.

- Good for 160GB Classic - Does NOT fit 80GB Classic

by +++when.is.iTunes.going.to.stop.suk'in?+++ from CA USA on 2008-01-30
DO NOT buy for the slimmer 80GB Classic iPod. It FITS WELL for the thicker 160GB Classic iPod (circa 2007 model), and perhaps some older models. Measure your model.

This is a reasonable inexpensive silicone skin. I always just prefer a simple skin that fits snug to keep it from sliding across my car dashboard and to prevent scratches. Also, I just like the silicone feel. For the low price, it's a decent deal - unless it does not fit . . .

by A. Lopez from NY, New York on 2007-09-01
I purchased this item as a gift for my boyfriend and it was totally not what i expected. The skin fits the ipod well except for the fact that the silicone is VERY flimsy and tears easy. It was not as depicted in the picture either, instead of being the bright orange that was shown in the picture, it was pale and barely showed as orange on the ipod. Add to the fact that the Amazon online store I got it from messed up my order TWICE (although they did recitfy it) made for a very unsatisfying shopping experience. Save your money on this one, or if you feel you absolutely must have a silicone skin, get it from the Apple store where they are much better quality.

The Recipes Sold Me!

by Eclectic Booklover from US on 2010-06-29
Who doesn't want a flat belly, but did you realize that people with flat bellies are less likely to develop, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease and cancer? The Everything Flat Belly Cookbook discusses combining a healthy lifestyle and moderate workout routine with recipes that help to eliminate the belly bulge.

Do you keep a food diary? Most people are way off when they just try to estimate how many calories they eat each day. Tracking your caloric intake is the only way to really know how many calories you are consuming. What about carbs, do you crave them like me? If so, it is recommended that you consume your carbs at breakfast only when you need the energy to fuel your day. Eating carbs in the evening usually ends up as extra fat as we are less likely to burn them off.

This book is not a diet book, but rather a book that guides you to start making more sensible eating choices. It also outlines some sensible exercises to strengthen abdominal and back muscles while losing a few pounds by making better food choices. The book has chapters that cover, Breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner menus and recipes. There is a section on salads, a vegetarian, seafood, poultry, and beef/pork section. In addition, there are soups/stews, pizzas, appetizers, dips/spreads and dressings, side dishes, and my favorite: not so sinful desserts.

The thing that really sold me on this book was the fact that MOST of the 300 recipes, look so simple to prepare. The recipes are low in calories and low in fat, and many are high in fiber and protein as well, and there were so very many that sounded like they would appeal to me as well. Usually when I borrow a cookbook from the library as I did in this case, I'll just copy the recipes that appeal to me, but this book had so many recipes that I wanted to try, that I ended up ordering it.

The Everything Flat Belly Cookbook Needs a Tummy Tuck!

by Lee Mellott from Frederick, Maryland on 2009-12-17
Driven by the excellent reviews and by my enjoyment of Prevention's "Flat Belly Diet" book I decided to purchase this book.

Whether it was planned to sound like the popular diet or merely a coincidence, it is important to note that this book is NOT a companion to Prevention's "Flat Belly Diet". With the title I had expected the book to tie in to Prevention's popular plan but it does not. This book makes use of artificial sugar (splenda), does not include MUFAs etc. The two books are totally unrelated. So if you are looking for a cook book for the Prevention book "Flat Belly Diet" you will want to look elsewhere.

The cookbook "The Everything Flat Belly Diet" boasts many good points. The authors open with a discussion on belly fat and share how what you eat is 80 percent responsible for your weight. They include tips on getting the most for your calorie buck and they include step by step directions for abdominal exercises - what to do and when to do them. Another nice factor in the book is the tidbits the authors add to the end of each recipe. Little tips like when to eat your largest meal, using lettuce instead of bread etc.

The authors include 300 recipes they claim will help you shed belly fat. Each recipe includes calories, fat, carbs, protein, sodium and fiber. Recipes are laid out in an easy to read fashion in the 292 page soft cover book. Chapters include; Flat Belly Philosophy, Rise and Shine, It's Breakfast Time!, Lunch Break, Snack Time and more.

The main disappointment in this book is some of the recipes. I was stunned as I read through a few of them. I like simple but these were to simple. For example;

Carrot Dippers (Carrot Sticks, Peanut Butter)
Dip carrots in peanut butter and enjoy.

Pickles in Blankets (Pickles, Fat Free Cheese)
Wrap each pickle in a cheese slice and enjoy.

Peanut Butter Apple Slices - (Apple, Peanut Butter)
Can you guess how to make this one?

If they had just been listed as snack suggestions it would have been fine but each of the above recipes and more like them were given there own separate page in the book. Some of the recipes were just plain disappointing. The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe for example involves mixing a prepared cookie mix with egg beaters and syrup. Cheesy fries has you baking prepared frozen french fries and sprinkling on cheese.

In fairness to the author there are some great dishes with simple preparation. If you are not fond of cooking but want to eat low fat this book may be a good choice for you. Sample recipes include; Steak and Caesar Salad, Cannellini Minestrone and Coq au Vin. If you like to cook, this book is most likely to simplistic for you.

The second disappointment is the book lacks photographs. Mouth watering photos do a lot to help me want to prepare a dish. And this book has none.

Personally I find that including healthy fats in my diet is a good thing and I am following a higher fat program which works much better for me. However,
if you want very simple to make low fat recipes with some tips for a flat belly included this may be the right cookbook for you. If you are looking for a companion to Prevention's "Flat Belly Diet", enjoy cooking and/or don't want to use Splenda select a different book.

Bon Apetit!

Way too much food

by J. Gray from West Fork, AR United States on 2010-08-15
This program required you to eat 6 meals a day. Calories around 1600. My husband and I were doing this diet together and after one month, we both gained 3 pounds. I cut calories for each day to prevent gaining since I knew that 1600 would be way too much.I fixed the recipes exactly as required, no extra amounts. We couldn't eat all that was required. Then it seemed like all we did all day was try to get menus ready, eat a ton of food and then eat more food. They only require 20 minutes of strength training three times a week along with all this food. That doesn't even help to burn off. I did my treadmill along with that, and still gained. Guess this program just wasn't for me.

I have done almost every program out there. Spark peoples program is free and lets you follow any program that you want. That is where I counted calories, and tracked my exercise. I lost 13 pounds. Can't wait to re-lose it after abs diet program!

Get this book!

by Alaina Burnett from West Allis, WI United States on 2010-08-10
I cannot say enough about how wonderful "The Abs Diet for Women" is. It's not really fair to call it a diet book. This is really a "learn an incredible amount of information about nutrition and learn how to live a healthy life" book. I began eating 5 times a day (three small-medium meals with mid-morning and afternoon snacks) and have already lost 7.5 pounds over the past 2 weeks. The power foods make perfect sense and are very easy to incorporate into every meal. I don't do the smoothies because of food allergies but I was able to take the core principles I learned from this book and am already seeing great success. The exercises are great and I love that the author tailored them to individual body styles. Whether you want to lose weight or simply learn more about nutrition and fitness, this is the book for you!!

Great all-inclusive Abs Diet Tome for Women

by S. Cooper from Chicago, IL USA on 2010-07-12
This book brings together the different components of the Abs Diet lifestyle and handily combines them all, serving as a great reference guide.
True to Abs Diet style, inspirational true stories are peppered throughout the book, prompting the "why didn't I find this sooner" thought.
There are several variations on the meal plans that put together real-life examples of how the Abs Diet looks across a couple weeks and highlights how many options there are, never leaving you feeling like you're eating the same stuff all the time.
Also included are specific exercises and plans for women - dealing with menstrual issues, pre- and post- pregnancy, menopause.
If I had one wish, it would be that the exercise pages were glossy coated pages with color photos. However I love that this book is paperback and has a smaller profile, so wouldn't want to give that up.

An easy way of life

If only I had known...

by Sheila Schoonmaker from USA on 2009-08-19
It was backwards of me to wait five years, after getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs, before also getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Women, Revised Edition: The Way to Physical Perfection! Even though following the exercises in the ab sculpting book works amazingly well, if I had also known the information given in the body sculpting book along with it, I would have maximized the potential results possible for my abs!

Jame Villepigue explains in detail what each ab exercise does; plus, he provides helpful tips to follow. The ab workout book does not give anywhere near as much vital overall information about exercise in general as does his body sculpting book. Now that I have this added information to go with my ab book, I'm already starting to see and feel the difference its making in only six weeks into doing the workouts compared to how I was doing my routines five years ago with less understanding about what and why I was doing things the way I did.

It's true that there are exercises which involve exercise equipment normally found only in a gym, but there is plenty of information in these books to make great use of the routines with what you do have available to use. For example, doing the High Chair Scissors exercises can be done if you have a tree nearby with a couple of branches available to rest your arms on (placing folded towels underneath to cushion the pressure).

The most useful equipment to achieve the best results are fortunately also the least expensive. Having only an exercise ball, floor mat, and weights are enough to get you great results. So don't let the lack of expensive equipment available have you thinking that these 'sculpting' books are not worth the money.

Understanding why and how important it is to have 'periodization training' (i.e., 'muscle confusion') incorporated into workout plans can make all the difference in the world, especially if you're the kind of person who needs to know about the details behind everything you do as much as possible in order to stay motivated.

Disappointing

by Fatma Dincsoy from on 2008-06-07
There are some good exercises in this book. However, if you have not done ab exercises regularly and you are looking for a program to get you started (especially if you are working out at home!), this book is not for you. Although the writer does address readers with weak abs, he does not provide an adequate beginner's program, which would prepare you for the more difficult moves. Furthermore, you need some serious equipment if you want to follow this "14-day ab sculpting workout" (which is, in fact, a 14-WEEK workout, broken into 2-week-sections").

If you already have pretty strong and toned abdominals and are getting bored with your routine, AND have access to an 'ab high chair' and a cable station, along with the obligatory Swiss ball, you might find some challenging exercises in the "Body Bible for Abs".

Otherwise, keep browsing for a better book.

The Body Sculpting Bible For Abs: Women's Edition

Such a great workout book that I need to buy it again. My 20 year old daughter stole it from me and took it back to college with her. A great book to bring to the health club with you as well.

Very informative and useful book

by Katherine N. Washington from essex, md United States on 2007-06-26
I can actually say this book taught me several workout routines and abdominal exercises that up until now I did not know existed. There are warm up exercises for the abs, medicine ball exercises for the abs, bench exercises for the abs, etc. The book is a very comprehensive manual, it has everything for all fitness level. If you are serious about getting your abs in shape this is a must have book

Not as complete as I'd hoped

by Miya S. Squires from Paradise, CA USA on 2007-06-10
This book is well-organized and has great pictures of the exercises (even though two of the models do look angry), but it does not specify muscles or muscle groups affected in each move, like many other ab books do. This makes it less useful as a resource when designing your ab workouts. It is very reader-friendly, however, and has lots of other options besides floor exercises for working your abs. If you have a Swiss Ball or Medicine Ball, or access to a gym, you'll probably use more of the moves described.

Seniors, Work Out!

by N. Keefe from Salt Lake City, UT on 2009-09-04
Joan Pagano's book and DVD "15 Minute Abs Workout" have been sitting on my book shelf for a few months now, all because I'm a senior citizen who sports a slow start button. FINALLY I blew the dust from this bible and started to follow the DVD with determination, whining a bit at first, of course. But, now, after only 3 weeks of regular practice, I feel like a new person. I still have a way to go, but I'm motivated; I also plan to refer back to Ms. Pagano's earlier books to work on my quads, currently aching from my back-to-bicycling efforts. Senior citizens, get moving. I've learned that, physically and mentally, a little bit of concentrated exercise goes a long way to making life increasingly satisfying. I count Joan Pagano's abs book a great resource for getting the core in shape and a good place to start. Think good balance and flexible movement along with.. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it!

Absolutely Fabulous!!!

by Searcher from on 2009-06-02
I have been a fan of Joan's books since discovering the first one, Strength Training for Women. I love her books. They are all well written and beautifully illustrated. She has a real talent to relate to the reader, clearly explaining the form and benefits of each exercise.
15 Minute Abs with its accompanying DVD is a prime example of that talent. The routines in this book and DVD are very easy to follow. I have noticed a significant improvement in my mid-section in the last 5 weeks following these exercises three times a week. 15 Minute Abs is a great book.

Lavish and overflowing with deep, rich, feminine movement, Luscious: The Bellydance Workout is made of 100% of bellydance moves and steps It is gentle, but it will work your body to enhance your muscle tone, flexibility, and fluidity, and promote weight loss. With a special focus on muscle conditioning and elongation, the program works each group of muscles deeply - using carefully built combinations to switch between muscle groups and add intensity to the workout. Lusscious: The Bellydance Workout features gorgeous music and a beautiful flow undiluted by conventional exercises. Systematically addressing each group of muscles to deliver a total body workout, it creates an entertaining and aesthetically fulfilling dance experience inspiring you to do your best in executing each move with the proper depth, range of motion, and articulation. A true dance experience as much as a fitness experience, Luscious is beginner level, but it offers you a perspective of challenge and growth. The workout consists of 7 sections, each building consistently upon the dance vocabulary covered in the previous sections through its own series of combinations. The combinations include classic bellydance transitions between steps to help you create the muscle memory to ingrain dance in your body. Luscious is an instructional workout. It introduces the dance vocabulary in a careful, systematic way and contains an extensive tutorial section breaking down each move used in the workout. If this is one of your first steps in bellydance, this program will be a fun introduction to all the basic groups of bellydance moves and transitions. If you are a dancer, it s a great way to practice the core of the bellydance technique and vocabulary through functional drills performed in the context of dance combinations and transitions creating an extra layer of muscle memory that isolated drills do not provide. Workout duration - 45 min. Tutorial section - 50 min. The Circles section explores circular bellydance moves. It follows a slow-to-moderate tempo, working both the lower and upper body through isolations. Next is the Infinity Loops section. Together with the stretching and toning impact of every move in this section, infinity loops are the ultimate exercise in fluidity. Undulations maintain flexibiilty of your spine and help develop deep awareness of your core. They are also a challenging full-body muscle-conditioning exercise. The bellydance hipwork section exercises your thighs, glutes, and abdominal muscles. In the Hip Accents section we ll perform traditional bellydance hip moves and then weave them together with the fluid movements: circles, infinity loops and undulations. Hipwork is what gives bellydance such vibrancy and party appeal - these steps look great on any dance floor. The Shimmy - that effortless shaking of the hips - is actually hard work! Join us to shake your way through a few styles of shimmy, and enjoy the wide range of shimmy flavors. The Body Line section is built of moves involving your total body. It shifts focus from working individual body parts to dance steps that offer the most stretching and give you a dancerly posture and carriage. The last section is a short dance routine choreographed entirely of the bellydance moves featured in the workout.

Inspiring!

by cryogini from United States on 2010-08-27
Beautiful dancers, beautiful costumes, beautiful music. As an advanced beginner, this gives me a good combination of things I can do and things that are still challenging. After the workout, they have step by step instructions to help you break down the moves, and there's a list of the music used so you can buy it yourself. There's a lot of material here, and you can watch it either with or without the voice cues. I think it's a worthwhile investment.

Not for beginners.

by J. Downs from Florissant, CO USA on 2010-08-26
The dancers are beautiful. The costumes are beautiful. The instruction sucks. This is NOT a video for complete beginners, like myself. I found myself extremely frustrated by the speed of the instructions and the rapid movement from step to step.

The instructors are all wearing long skirts and you cannot see the knee and leg movements they are pointing out to you. It is difficult to copy a movement that you cannot see.

Do not buy this video until you have a firm foundation in bellydance. I'm sure its great for intermediates or advanced.

Fun video but not as easy as it looks

by Monica Pease from on 2010-07-30
This should be your first work out tape unless you actively do an arobics exercise and are in reasonalbe shape. I found Neon's instruction in the 'step-by-step' section very helpful. This section is great for thoes who do not have any background. For thoes who have background, the section makes a great check and drill. No matter your size, this workout really works out most of the target areas. I think Luscious is a nice but challengin work out for beginners. I am pushing into my one year in belly dancing, and i found this video informative, creative and simply divine. the music is perfect for each section. I never got bored with this workout because of how each dancer lead the section and the different costumes. My arms and thighs alone burned with satisfaction.

Not for Beginners

by michelle dyett-welcome from New York on 2010-07-22
Luscious - The Bellydance Workout for Beginners

This is not for beginners--you can't see their feet, they go to fast and they get caught up in their performance that they forget it is supposed to be for beginners. Don't waste your money-- Rania has some better DVD's out there that are really great for beginners.

I did break a sweat but it was because I was trying so hard to keep up and I still was confused and lost. I never knew if my feet were positioned right or not because I could not see their feet. These people should give people who bought this DVD back their money because they misrepresented--it is not for beginners! It is for the advanced--probably those who took their classes.

Perfect basic yummy practice for beginners

by Tree Fan from Asheville, NC on 2010-06-21
If you are brand new to bellydance, I highly recommend this DVD. I have had several bellydance DVDs, and use different ones for different reasons, but I'd rate this one very high in the "practice the basics while enjoying yourself" category ... it gives a very nice fundamental dance vocabulary for your body and dance, to practice and build on as time goes by ... I find all of the teachers and the instructions to be very pleasant and good as well ... There are pointers and some instruction, most especially in the technique breakdown ... It's nice because you are having fun and feeling good while learning and increasing your skill ... Also it provides a healthy dose of how moves affect your body (internal and external) and encourages self expression and Love ... Om Shanti

Best of the series

by ginsu from tv land on 2008-10-14
I dont know why they call this a workout. ITS NOT A WORKOUT. I kind of wish it was, becasue that would be hilarious.

Instead its the best krump instructional of the series. Better moves, better combos. Better instruction. And they review the moves of the first two DVDs.

I would recommend this DVD to non Krumpers. THey emphasize grooving, and using double speed krump moves (without the hard hitting) to improve musicality. When you see the moves without the aggro posturing, (arm throws, the rythem of the combos, the torso roll variations) you can see that theyre dope and can fit in with many other dance styles.

Just Ok

Disappointed, they don't do the workout with you

by Genda Davis from The Luna Lounge on 2006-02-03
I would give this 2 and 1/2 stars. This is more of an instructional DVD than a dance workout. Once you actually get to the workout part (there is a lot of bonus material on the DVD, including battle footage)the lead guy says, "look, I'm not Richard Simmons, I'm not gonna take you through an 8-count routine." Instead, they go through a variety of moves about twice or three times and then tell you to learn them all on your own and repeat each one twelve times or so. I thought this was disappointing because I don't have the patience or time to go through and figure all that out on my own. If you really want to learn Krump dancing and are patient, than get this DVD. Just be warned that it feels more like an instructional DVD than a workout.

Workout - not instructions

by B. McGraw from Boston on 2009-10-17
They aren't entirely clear this isn't a linear follow up to the first DVD in the "Series" which is focused on technique and movement. This one is more of a straight up workout dvd that is presented over 3 levels depending on your own fitness level. It's not bad and I do hope the series comes back.

Great instruction DVD

by Gwenevere from California on 2009-07-18
I recently purchased both Hoopnotica Beginner Levels 1 and 2. I am new to hoop dancing and I watched both of these DVDs from beginning to end without hooping just to concentrate on the instructions. I think they are both excellent DVDs as they are very clear, organized and concise. If you are trying to decide on which one to get, I recommend that you start with the Level 1, but really you should get both. I plan to collect these as they come out, they are really that good. (Note that these aren't exercise routine DVDs - they are for learning the techniques of hoop dancing.)

Just a good as level 1!

by goodgirl from Mesa, Az on 2009-03-23
I really enjoy these DVDs. The instruction is very straight forward and easy to follow. I would absolutely recommend this for beginning hoop dancers!

Which to get?

by Vick from Portland, OR United States on 2008-11-15
I know how to do a basic hula hoop around the waist and am looking for a DVD that I can get some exercise and burn some calories with.

For anyone who might have viewed both Hoopnotica Beginner Level 1 and Hoopnotica Beginner Level 2 -- would you suggest I get 1 or 2 for my purpose?

Thanks.

Richard Simmons Broadway Blast Off Get-up-and-go

The first song is a little complicated but after that it is fantastic, makes me want to be a broadway star.

A fun and entertaining workout...

by Chris from United States on 2008-02-01
Love this exercise tape by Richard Simmons. It is fun to do and entertaining as well. Fun to exercise and pretend you are on Broadway! It is a 30 minute vigorous workout that includes the songs: "The Telephone Song", "Do Re Mi", "Gonna Wash That Man Right Out Of My Hair", "Hello Dolly", "Climb Every Mountain". Like his other videos, he has people of all sizes in the video, working at different levels, so it is great for any exercise level. Although, I do not care for the Sweatin To the Oldies series, I love these. Wish they would release these older workouts on dvd also, as they are timeless.

Description

At a time when we know so much about choosing safe, effective exercises, reissuing Cindy Crawford's 1992 best-selling disaster, Shape Your Body, is inexcusable. Swimsuit-clad Cindy puts herself through flings and gyrations that show off her body but aren't any good for anyone else's. She presents one after another of the exercises that fitness professionals threw out of their routines two decades ago because they're ineffective and risky to back and joints. Her alignment is awful; her control nonexistent. She rounds her back and flings her leg into high kicks. She does squats letting her knees go way past her toes. Even when the exercises are decently chosen and performed, she does them much too quickly, relying on momentum instead of muscle power, such as two-second bent-over rows. Trainer Radu, who designed and coached this workout, should be sentenced to an eternity of fast donkey kicks, leg swings, and trunk circles. This "toning" video would be a joke, except that you really could get hurt following it. In fact, when Shape Your Body first came out, fitness expert Peg Jordan, author of Fitness Instinct, appeared on CNN warning viewers about the risks of this video. "I received a call from a chiropractor who had treated 12 patients' back injuries from that video alone!" she recalls. If you've got to have this one, watch it only, don't do it. --Joan Price

A friend of mine got me this DVD a very looong time ago. I got bored one day and decided to do it. I had been hooked from the very first workout! I was in pain the very next day because I was so out of shape - but it was very much worth it. I lost so much weight that friends did not recognize me. I alternated between the 2 workouts. Monday, I would do workout 1 - Tuesday, workout 2 - Wednesday, back to workout 1. If I was in a mad rush and wanted to get a workout in, I'd do the 3rd workout which is the quick one. I did stop doing the workout because life started getting hectic and I didn't have any time for the DVD. But, I am going right back and doing it. I am getting married in 2 months and need to get back into shape. I have been doing an elliptical machine, but the results are not as good as this DVD. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend it!

finally an unannoying workout video

by D. Kang from san jose, ca on 2010-06-16
Cindy's workout videos are the only ones I can tolerate. I love how she is low-key and the music is soothing, yet upbeat, not at all annoying or in your face like other videos. That reviewer who said they needed a "good job" at the end made me laugh. Why do you need someone to pat you on the back and be all fake? You should be happy with your performance and feel good about. You need someone to say "Great job!" - wow, great job!

Trim and Slim

by Nicole M. Williams from Chicago IL on 2010-05-28
I found this to be good workout. There was toning for the legs, arms, stomach and butt. The music was retro and fun. It make you feel like you were in a music video and working righ next to Cindy.

people who give this bad reviews don't know what they are talking about

by commentator from FL on 2010-04-06
When I first started doing these videos I knew they would be tough so I worked up to them with my own exercises like walking and doing the exercise bike. Then I started out slowly by doing just the ten minute workout for a week. After that I felt ready to do the longer ones but then only as many reps as I could handle. After it ceased to be as challenging I increased the weights and concentrated more on slow control.
Yes, you will be sore, but never a bad sore. I was so proud to feel that way--I knew I had had a good workout. And the reason I knew I hadn't damaged myself is because I never hurt(as opposed to burn) when I did the exercises, and I always felt good when I was done. Interestingly enough the more sore I was, the more necessary I felt it was to exercise again. And doing that always made me feel better! Kudos to all the five star reviews--you covered just about everything for me. I was so upset about the editorial and was relieved to see that there were people out there who knew what they were talking about.

Awesome!!!

by Marie from on 2010-09-02
This video is full of fun fat burning activities that have helped me lose a few pounds.

Hip Hip ABs

by April from on 2010-08-28
Fun,easy to follow, and definitely works your abs! The vocals should be louder. I found it is difficult to hear the steps being called. The cardio routine is a good work out. If you are putting forth the effort, you will be sweating. I would recommend this package to someone who is interested in working out at home and wants to concentrate on the abs. A great way to exercise!

Fun but need more...

by Harley Chick from on 2010-08-28
Although this workout is fun to do I don't feel like it is much of a workout. I went from this to P90X and now that is a workout.

Fantastic for people who want to have fun when excercising

by S. Lawrence from Crossville Alabama on 2010-08-12
Not too hard on the joints and you can have fun adjusting to your own pace. been using 2 weeks and already lost a pound!

It's Okay...

by June Ritchie from Laurel, Maryland United States on 2010-08-09
I like the pace of the DVDs, but I think it needs more instruction. You can't really tell if you performing a dance step correctly especially with such a fast pace routine.

5 Disc Set: Shape Up - Front Gets your body moving and your blood flowing with a workout that burns twice the calories. Shape Up Back The fast track to losing weight continues by working biceps glutes hamstrings and abs. Cardio Kick Box Muscles get a day off from weight training while an aerobic workout keeps you moving.

If you're envying the six-pack abs on Jillian Michaels, trainer from NBC's The Biggest Loser and self-proclaimed "TV's toughest fitness guru," look no further than her Shape-Up Backside exercise DVD for an intense high-impact workout. Michaels keeps your body moving (though she herself skips out on half the exercises) with hammer curls, oblique raises, step ups, planks, and a move called The Superman destined to tone your back, biceps glutes, hamstrings and abs. There's a lower-level option, but Michaels likes to "kick your butt," as she says, to get you to feel the burn. Shape-Up Backside's DVD features include printable diet/exercise logs, nutrition tips and recipes. It requires two props: a bench-style exercise step and light dumbbells, which may make it difficult for beginners. But if you give it a try, even in the comfort of your living room you'll think you're in a gym -- trainer yelling in your ear and all. -- Ellen A. Kim

Pretty Good

by Anonymous from Little Rock, AR on 2010-08-27
I used to do the Buns of Steel Platinum Series. Obviously that was a while ago. I do not like the Jillian Michaels workouts as well as the ones with Tammy Lee Webb, but for a beginner to an intermediate, these workouts are not bad.

good workout

by New to workouts via dvd from on 2010-07-20
The workout set is great! Consists of 5 different half hour workouts, one for each day of the work week! The workouts are challenging yet everyone is capable after a few practice runs through the set. There is a always one person on the tape doing the modified workout for beginners. I recommend it!

DVD was defective

by SF gal from on 2010-07-09
I'm sure this would have been a good work out DVD however it was defective (perhaps that is why it was only 8.97?) The strange thing was it was packaged as new. I ended up throwing it out, skipped all the way through, even though I cleaned the DVD thoroughly. When I looked at the DVD there was streak all the way through it. Looks like this seller received a bunch of defective DVD's and sold them as "new"

timely, perfect

The service was great.. wonderful low price, shipped quickly and in perfect condition. The video is wonderful for those who dont have much time to work out. at the end I was like.. "thats it?" yet the next two days i was sooo sore! Anyone has time for this!

Get all the essential heart rate features with this good-looking and simple-to-use training computer. RS300X is compatible with S1 foot pod and G1 GPS sensor, so you can combine heart rate with speed and distance.

A smart, intuitive training computer for runners and cross-training athletes, the Polar RS300X wrist heart rate monitor helps you to train at the right intensity with personal training zones. It's compatible with Polar's S1 foot pod and G1 GPS sensor (both separately available), enabling you to combine heart rate with speed and distance and truly make sense of your training. Committed runners will find the most value in the real-time pace and distance measurement of the S1 foot pod, while those who mix up their training regimen with cycling, inline skating, paddling, mountain biking or hiking will be best served with the speed and distance G1 GPS Sensor. It comes with the Polar WearLink+ 31 coded transmitter (with changeable battery). The RS300X helps you to train at the right intensity with personal training zones. .caption { font-family: Verdana, Helvetica neue, Arial, serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; } ul.indent { list-style: inside disc; text-indent: 20px; } table.callout { font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, serif; margin: 10px; width: 250; } td.callout { height: 100 percent; background: #9DC4D8 url(http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/callout-bg.png) repeat-x; border-left: 1px solid #999999; border-right: 1px solid #999999; padding: 10px; width: 250px; } ul.callout { list-style: inside disc; text-indent: -12px; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; } h5.callout { text-align: center; } Polar RS300X Models Basic RS300X -- black and orange RS300X SD with S1 foot pod for real-time pace/distance -- black and orange RS300X G1 with G1 GPS Sensor for cross-trainers -- black and orange The RS300X enables athletes to train at the right intensity and improve their performance through core metrics such as heart rate, speed, distance, pace, and calorie burn. Advanced features include Polar's exclusive OwnZone feature for individualized zone training by heart rate or pace, a fitness test, and auto lap splits, which display average heart rate, pace and distance per lap. Athletes can easily review up to 16 past workout files to check their progress and ensure they're staying on track with their fitness or training plan. Features include: Heart rate displayed as percentage of maximum heart rate, BPM, and average heart rate of total exercise Tracks your latest 16 training sessions and your last 16 weeks of training Visual and audible alarm in target zones: Informs you every time your heart rate and/or speed/pace exceeds the upper limit or falls below the lower limit of your target zone during a training session. Polar OwnIndex Fitness Test calculates aerobic fitness (comparable to maximal oxygen uptake, VO2max) providing a reference to base training intensity and measure improvement. Polar OwnCal: Shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. Because the OwnCal tracks both the energy expenditure during one exercise session and the accumulated kilocalories during a longer time e.g. one week, it helps in achieving both short term and long term goals. Time in Target Zone feature calculates the amount of total training time spent in your personal target zone. You can use this feature together with the Total Exercise Time to determine the effectiveness of your training program. Number of laps - 99 Watch features: alarm with snooze, dual time zone, stopwatch Compatible with Polar FlowLink (available separately) Water resistant to 50 meters Backlighting, display zoom Event Countdown Timer: Keeps your motivation high by showing how many days are left before your next running event (e.g., Berlin 23 days). About Polar The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.

More positives than negatives

by Bill Graham from on 2010-06-27
First, let me say that if you are interested in this heart rate monitor watch, it is probably because you will be using it mainly for the heart rate monitor. However, I would have liked to see a LITTLE more flexibility to use it as both a heart rate monitor AND a watch at the same time. Perhaps I haven't quite figured out how to easily switch between the clock and the actual timers, but it isn't a big deal if you don't mind that. It's certainly not a deal breaker by any means.

I haven't dug into the features too much at this point, but I have used it for over 30 sessions of weight lifting and running, and everything works really well. Some people have said there is interference at times, but I have yet to run into anything like that. I rinse it off after every workout, and even washed it in the washer once already. So far, the strap itself has worked pretty well, though I wish it would stay up a little more in the back. I have a wide back so I can't really blame the strap, and having something resembling suspenders would be a little absurd. Additionally, when using it for weight lifting, because of the necessary location of the strap, it can get in the way on barbell benchpress, barbell bent rows, or other exercises that might come in contact with your lower chest.

The watch is light, and I like the color because it is never hard to find. Sure, it would look a little goofy to wear out and about as a general purpose watch, but this thing wasn't made for that. The buttons are all very easy to press, though sometimes the main lap button at the bottom (red button) has not read my perceived button press. Perhaps this is user error on my part, as I can't be positive because generally it is right after I finish a sprint that I press it. Your results may vary, but 98 out of 100 times, it works perfectly for me. I love the breakdowns and flexibility this thing gives, and it was nice to see it tell me that my fitness level was "elite."

Would definitely recommend for someone who wants the flexibility and precision of a great heart rate monitor watch.

lost heart rate

by Mark G. Huber from lancaster pa usa on 2010-04-17
I have been very disappointed with the heart rate monitor. During exercise i will notice no heart rate on my watch screen. Any advice or anyone else experiencing the same issue? I have cleaned strap and changed battery. Advice anyone?

Good watch

by Mike from New York, NY on 2010-04-15
I could not figure out how to display calories in real time. Checked the manual, it only mentioned that you can view calories in summaries after the workout. So I figured that's not an option.
A review here pointed out to me I'm wrong.
Here's how you do it: start-settings-display-edit .
Spelling it out in the manual would be nice (judging by my internet search I'm not the only one having trouble with this). But that's a nitpick.

great watch

by Diego from Costa Rica on 2010-03-14
It's a replacement for one I lost, works pretty fine for me, cool design and great features.

Great tool for success!

by Teri Burrow from USA on 2009-08-31
I bought this when I started losing weight to get a more accurate measure of my calorie burn since the machines in the gym always seem to be inflated! It has helped me ensure that my cardio puts me in the right heartrate zone and tracks my calorie burn for a week which lets me know if I am behind or ahead for weight loss that week so I can alter my program along the way! I love it!

Nice sturdy ball

by Tips from on 2010-08-07
This is a great ball! It is very nice quality and really big. I got it for a birthing ball and couldn't air it up all the way or it would be too big!

Great Exercise Ball

by Discover from MN USA on 2010-07-31
I use this ball to sit on while using my computer. My last ball recently popped, it was very large, so I needed a replacement. This ball has very high-quality, thick rubber(or some kind of plastic) and will not pop any time soon. It has a band that goes around it to tell you when to stop inflating, my ball didn't ever get that big, it has been 2 weeks. If the measuring tape is correct, the ball inflates to about 82cm. Plenty big to sit on. I had to use a different pump to inflate this ball with, when I need to make quick fills after the ball has stretched out i use the low-quality pump that came with it. Comes with 2 plugs, they do not leak air until they are completely out of the ball. The color is a strange blue, wish it was black, but not too ugly, lighter than in picture, not green. Did not stink when I opened it, has absolutely no smell!!! I am very satisfied with this ball, it is worth the extra 5 bucks.

Save your money: look elsewhere

by James D. Richardson from Western NY state on 2010-05-20
This review is for the J Fit 45cm "Professional Grade" Exercise Ball. I wanted a 45 cm one to fill out my home gym's three other-sized fitness balls. It is hardly professional, but is quite thin, just like the cheapest ones from box stores. When inflated to exactly 45 centimers diameter, measured with a tape, it compresses almost halfway(!) with my 160 pound weight. This mushiest ball I've yet encountered is a joke. At correct inflation even a child would find it way too spongy. Look elsewhere at other brands. I returned it immediately as defective, for a refund.

gym quality ball

by fitness fanatic from California on 2010-05-17
This is a great quality ball, just like the one I use at the gym. The purple color was pretty much as pictured and I didn't have any problems with the smell as previous reviews have stated. The pump quality does not match the ball quality. I would use a double action or better pump, otherwise it takes forever. The extra money for this ball is well worth the quality. I am happy with my purchase.

It is bigger than 55cm

by Chatton Mom from on 2010-04-30
I am 5'2", and I was thinking of using this ball as a chair with an existing stabilizing cradle. Because my old 55cm ball was poked by my cat, I needed to get a new one, and got this one.
However, after inflating, I found that this ball was much bigger than the previous 55cm one.
The quality does not look bad. Though air leakage was a major issue with my previous ball, this ball seems to have less air leakage.

Whats wrong with you people?

by RUSH from BRONX, NEW YORK on 2010-07-26
Oddly there is absolutely no mention in any of these reviews about how much protein there is in this protein based product. Does anyone know? after all its a protein meal replacement shake. I don't care about how pretty the box is or how little the calorie content is or if it tastes great. If a person is not getting the proper amount of proteins to support proper workout then the product is useless. Protein, Thats the whole point. i wouldnt buy this product based on the reviews at all because they miss the effectivness of most crucial ingredient. Sigh, For the record it has 30 grams of protein. (thanks for clarifying that for me Gordon.)

fantastic

by I.A.M. from New England, USA on 2010-06-15
This is a great meal replacement. I even throw in to the blender 1/2 fluids that are apple juice and water, 1/2 banana and a strawberry. Yummy and filling. I do not run out of steam on the tennis courts anymore.

Yummy & Satisfies!

by Adrienne B. Johnson from Ridgefield CT on 2010-06-08
This is hands down the best tasting protein shake I have ever had! I do suggest mixing it with icy cold water in a simple blender bottle. You can do skim milk, but there's really no need. It is smooth, rich, thick and keeps me very full. I like that it isn't a high sugar cintent and it provides a great source of low fat energy boosting protein. There is nothing weird in this shake that gives people the jitters. I work in a business where I can't always sit down and eat a big meal, so this shake is quick, nutritious and simple. Best of all it really keeps me satisfied, and keeps me from snacking on crappy foods. By the time I get home I am still energized enough to do my workout. This shake is helping me keep my lean muscle and burn off my excess fat. One of my friends recommended this shake for me and I am so glad she did. I can take the little protein shake packets anywhere and convenience is SO key.

Lean Body

by Mrs. Stacee Spoerl from Grayslake, IL on 2009-12-19
Lean Body is a wonderful replacement product. We liked the chocolate flavor the best. We would either low fat milk or if we were making a special dinner treat add low fat choc ice cream and peanut butter. Too good!! The product is a little expensive but the convenience is worth it. We have tried Slim Fast and my son and I prefer this product.

Better than I expected

by eneri from Los Angeles, CA United States on 2009-11-16
I'm not a breakfast person, and my usual first-meal is a cup of coffee or the occasional unhealthy option of a bagel & cream cheese, a muffin or something with bacon in it. On the days that I skip breakfast, I'm ravenous by noon and find myself easily caving into temptation of french fries or the pasta special at the lunch stop downstairs.

I bought these meal replacement packs as part of a plan to get back into shape. It's only been a few days and so far I've just replaced breakfast with these shakes. I've been pleasantly surprised at the taste and how long it keeps me satisfied without making my hunger go out of control.

In conjunction with this purchase, I also got myself a single-serving, personal blender and a shaker cup. The personal blender has been a PHENOMENAL accessory and I don't even want to bother with the shaker cup.

I have a feeling the powder mixed only with water or milk as directed would be unacceptable to my palate. Instead, I've been adding a handful of frozen berries, low fat soy milk and buzzing it up in the blender with a few ice cubes for that perfect smoothie consistency. On days when I need an extra pick-me up, I mix in a bit of energy drink I haven't been craving coffee (flavor), but still need the caffeine kick. So far, so good! I'll report back if this product has any lasting power/results.

Excellent yoga pants - even for tall women like me.

by Cate from on 2010-08-24
I'm 5'10 and have a 34" inseam and these pants are perfect. Even after I washed AND dried them they didn't shrink up like nearly every single one of my other yoga pants have done. They still come down below my ankles but not too long. I'm buying more now.

It's a shame most of the reviews on this product reference a hat!

I liked these pants so much I went back and got a second pair. I bought my usual size. The flare at the bottom is flattering, makes them look like pants more than leggings. I like how they are a close fit on the thighs, not as baggy as sweatpants. I wear these hiking as well as for yoga

The fact is, childhood obesity levels have tripled in the past two decades, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Children who are significantly overweight are at higher risk for cardiovascular disease, high cholesterol and Type 2 diabetes and are more likely to become obese adults. Establishing a fitness routine early in life will help prevent current and future weight problems. To help kids get into fitness right from the start, Redmon has designed a foam Bench Press Set. Redmon believes children's exercise should be fun, exciting, and safe, and inspire them to permanently maintain an active lifestyle. The Redmon Bench Press Set encourages children to move with healthy activity based recreation. Safety tested and approved for children 3-8 years old, it features a weight bench that allows them to perform bench presses, leg curls and leg lifts with weights appropriate for their age and size. These three fundamental exercises provide a strong foundation for any exercise routine.

Just like the real thing!

by Jake20 from on 2010-02-10
This is a very solid piece of kids equipment.. No plastic parts here. The frame is made of real metal, and is extremely sturdy and well built.
Its like a real miniature workout bench! I do wish the bench was adjustable, but its no big deal.
My son is only 2 1/2 so its perfect for him, but I can see it being a little small for bigger kinds.

But well worth the price.. I highly recommend!

great kids work out bench

by Mamma LLama from on 2010-02-05
So surprised by the quality of this. I did not expect it to be so sturdy. easy to put together. My 3 year old loves working out with his dad in the garage this was a huge hit christmas morning!

Neat

by Bryan N. Shawyer from Inwood,WV on 2009-12-31
I bought this for my nephew(he is almost 4) for Christmas. He likes to try and workout with me, so I thought he would like this. It was the first thing he ran to Christmas morning. I agree with the review on using this for children 5 years or younger(maybe 6).

Great - but for smaller kids

by E. Klein from California on 2009-12-28
This kids weight bench is great on many levels. I take my 6 year old son to the gym's "kids club" several times a week and he often wants to go to the workout area to "exercise like Daddy does." This bench is a fantastic way to stress the importance of exercise and health at a young age and, from what I can tell, there are no other products like it. However, I had to return it because it was too small. The box says it's good for kids up to 7 but my son is 6 and it's already way too small for him. He's a big bigger than normal but not an extremely large child. I would recommend this only for 5 year olds and younger. Too bad, they should make it a bit larger. I could see a larger version of something like this being useful until a child is maybe 10 years old (if it had the option of using real weights).

Duel color red/white 42 ft speed agility ladder w/nylon carry bag, integrated strap for tangle free storage, and a speed drill DVD. Use as one long 42 ft ladder or unsnapped into two 21 ft ladders. It can be used as a side by side ladder for doubles drills. Side rails are black polypro webbing. Each 21 foot section has 13 quality plastic rungs, 26 rungs per 42 foot. The rungs are flat (no ankle rollover), they are adjustable but will not move our of place during use. It can be used on any surface indoors or outdoors. It has slip resistant ends on each rung which helps the ladder to not slide. You can wear any sports shoes, even cleats. Mind body training are some of the latest techniques used today. Duel color speed ladders allow you to use command reaction training. Here is how it works: Start a speed drill at the 1st color. Instruct the athlete to switch to a different speed drill when they get to the 2nd color. Do not slow down when switching to the new drill. The 2nd technique is to call out a new drill right when the user gets to the second color. They should not slow down when switching drills. Training the mind & body to react quickly is vital training for today's athletes. The DVD shows 2 college athletes demonstrating 20 Speed drills. DVD was produced by the college athletes. This is not a commercial video however it does a nice job showing you 20 of the drills they do in their training. This DVD is a free bonus. This ladder is not as heavy duty as a NFL TEAMS ladder would be. A 42 foot ladder like theirs would cost $110 and up. The vast majority of user do not need a ladder that heavy duty nor do they want to spend $110 for a 42 foot speed ladder. Our ladder is a quality ladder with a price you can afford.

Rubber-Cal's Elephant Bark is a recycled rolled rubber mat and flooring option that is available in 2 gauges: a 1/4 inch thick and a 3/8 inch thick and is perfect for a variety of applications. Being that this material is made domestically, and of 100% recycled rubber, this mat is both a socially and ecologically responsible product. This product is excellent for either indoor or outdoor applications due the high contents of EPDM (i.e. a UV/Ozone resistant elastomer) found in the recycled tire rubber. Recycled rubber is a superior material when trying to reduce noise, contain vibration, and absorb shock from workout equipment, and Elephant Bark does just that. This product is specifically manufactured for durability and is designed for either residential or commercial applications that are exposed to heavy foot traffic. Moreover, the space age polyurethane based binder used during manufacturing process enhances the anti-fatigue qualities found naturally in rubber. Each mat is fabricated from thousands of rubber granules and offers superior underfoot comfort and support along with the resilience to cushion the shock of running, exercising, walking and standing. One of the biggest concerns commonly associated with rubber matting is the installation. This mat weighs roughly 50lbs in a 4ft x 10ft roll and generally stays down under its own weight; therefore there is no for permanent adhesives. In order to keep the edges and entry points from being a trip hazard, Orcon's DS-PS double-sided tape can be used for a uniform and level installation. Elephant Bark recycled rubber matting is available in 7 unique colors: All Black, White Dot, Red Dot, Green Dot, Blue Dot, Candy Corn, and Blue Steel, allowing you to aesthetically match any room to help create a safe and warm environment to inhabit.

Features

• Made from abrasion and wear resistant 100% domestically produce recycled rubber
• Ideal residential or commercial areas requiring anti-slip, abrasion, impact protection, and shock absorption
• Designed for indoor and outdoor applications due to high content of EPDM found in recycled tire rubber
• Provides superior underfoot comfort and support to absorb the shock of running, exercising, and walking
• Extremely simple and easy DIY installation in garages, basements, doggie daycares, and gym & fitness facilities

Not what I wanted

by D. Braendel from Philadelphia on 2010-07-22
The cards are glossy and clearly printed (though the key chain that comes with them is a joke). But many of the exercises pictured are duplicates, one Dumbbell Curls card for beginners, for example, one for intermediate, and one for advanced. So the number of discrete exercises is actually pretty low. I was hoping to create my own workout program, but I couldn't do it with what's available here.

disapointing

by Joan Bennett from Atlanta, GA on 2010-07-01
I was disapointed with these workout cards. There are only a few basic exercises and the Beginner, intermediate and advanced workouts are all the same. The cards are well made and have nice illustrations but the workouts are very limited. Also, ring to hold them was supposed to be included but all the came was a short little chain that is useless. Would like to return them but have already unwrapped the cards. I'm looking into fitdeck and shape workout cards.

Really simple. And he thought of everything!

by Nicky from CA on 2008-12-11
This is amazing. The exercises are simple and well explained. Eduardo thought of everything. The little tips on the pictures are awesome! They show every little important thing to watch for. And he even tells you how long each routine takes! I put my routine together with the ring and take it to the gym. The whole thing fits in my pocket and I just look at the exercise before I do it. Although the routines are simple, I felt really sore on the first few times. And I was done with everything in less than half hour.

Great idea. Really good workout.

by Adam D. from CA on 2008-12-11
This is really good. Really simple but really thorough. At first I thought the routines were too simple, but I can't believe how the advanced routine kicked my butt! I love that he combines some body weight exercises with free weight, like doing push ups right after doing chest press. And the whole workout took less than half an hour. I did a half-hour cardio right after and was out of the gym in one hour. For a full body workout and cardio, that's amazing!

Not what I expected

by N. Fuller from Southern CA on 2010-07-09
I guess I didn't read the description very carefully. I thought this was built like a weight with a clock on it, but it's just a regular clock with a picture of a weight as the background on the inside of the clock. Unimpressed and planning to return it.

Not what I expected

I was extremely disappointed with this product so much so that I threw it in the trash immediately. The clock face itself was like a poor photocopy of xeroxed copy of a barbell. Couldn't fool a blind man.

Lavish and overflowing with deep, rich, feminine movement, Luscious: The Bellydance Workout is made of 100% of bellydance moves and steps It is gentle, but it will work your body to enhance your muscle tone, flexibility, and fluidity, and promote weight loss. With a special focus on muscle conditioning and elongation, the program works each group of muscles deeply - using carefully built combinations to switch between muscle groups and add intensity to the workout. Lusscious: The Bellydance Workout features gorgeous music and a beautiful flow undiluted by conventional exercises. Systematically addressing each group of muscles to deliver a total body workout, it creates an entertaining and aesthetically fulfilling dance experience inspiring you to do your best in executing each move with the proper depth, range of motion, and articulation. A true dance experience as much as a fitness experience, Luscious is beginner level, but it offers you a perspective of challenge and growth. The workout consists of 7 sections, each building consistently upon the dance vocabulary covered in the previous sections through its own series of combinations. The combinations include classic bellydance transitions between steps to help you create the muscle memory to ingrain dance in your body. Luscious is an instructional workout. It introduces the dance vocabulary in a careful, systematic way and contains an extensive tutorial section breaking down each move used in the workout. If this is one of your first steps in bellydance, this program will be a fun introduction to all the basic groups of bellydance moves and transitions. If you are a dancer, it s a great way to practice the core of the bellydance technique and vocabulary through functional drills performed in the context of dance combinations and transitions creating an extra layer of muscle memory that isolated drills do not provide. Workout duration - 45 min. Tutorial section - 50 min. The Circles section explores circular bellydance moves. It follows a slow-to-moderate tempo, working both the lower and upper body through isolations. Next is the Infinity Loops section. Together with the stretching and toning impact of every move in this section, infinity loops are the ultimate exercise in fluidity. Undulations maintain flexibiilty of your spine and help develop deep awareness of your core. They are also a challenging full-body muscle-conditioning exercise. The bellydance hipwork section exercises your thighs, glutes, and abdominal muscles. In the Hip Accents section we ll perform traditional bellydance hip moves and then weave them together with the fluid movements: circles, infinity loops and undulations. Hipwork is what gives bellydance such vibrancy and party appeal - these steps look great on any dance floor. The Shimmy - that effortless shaking of the hips - is actually hard work! Join us to shake your way through a few styles of shimmy, and enjoy the wide range of shimmy flavors. The Body Line section is built of moves involving your total body. It shifts focus from working individual body parts to dance steps that offer the most stretching and give you a dancerly posture and carriage. The last section is a short dance routine choreographed entirely of the bellydance moves featured in the workout.

Inspiring!

by cryogini from United States on 2010-08-27
Beautiful dancers, beautiful costumes, beautiful music. As an advanced beginner, this gives me a good combination of things I can do and things that are still challenging. After the workout, they have step by step instructions to help you break down the moves, and there's a list of the music used so you can buy it yourself. There's a lot of material here, and you can watch it either with or without the voice cues. I think it's a worthwhile investment.

Not for beginners.

by J. Downs from Florissant, CO USA on 2010-08-26
The dancers are beautiful. The costumes are beautiful. The instruction sucks. This is NOT a video for complete beginners, like myself. I found myself extremely frustrated by the speed of the instructions and the rapid movement from step to step.

The instructors are all wearing long skirts and you cannot see the knee and leg movements they are pointing out to you. It is difficult to copy a movement that you cannot see.

Do not buy this video until you have a firm foundation in bellydance. I'm sure its great for intermediates or advanced.

Fun video but not as easy as it looks

by Monica Pease from on 2010-07-30
This should be your first work out tape unless you actively do an arobics exercise and are in reasonalbe shape. I found Neon's instruction in the 'step-by-step' section very helpful. This section is great for thoes who do not have any background. For thoes who have background, the section makes a great check and drill. No matter your size, this workout really works out most of the target areas. I think Luscious is a nice but challengin work out for beginners. I am pushing into my one year in belly dancing, and i found this video informative, creative and simply divine. the music is perfect for each section. I never got bored with this workout because of how each dancer lead the section and the different costumes. My arms and thighs alone burned with satisfaction.

Not for Beginners

Luscious - The Bellydance Workout for Beginners

This is not for beginners--you can't see their feet, they go to fast and they get caught up in their performance that they forget it is supposed to be for beginners. Don't waste your money-- Rania has some better DVD's out there that are really great for beginners.

I did break a sweat but it was because I was trying so hard to keep up and I still was confused and lost. I never knew if my feet were positioned right or not because I could not see their feet. These people should give people who bought this DVD back their money because they misrepresented--it is not for beginners! It is for the advanced--probably those who took their classes.

Perfect basic yummy practice for beginners

by Tree Fan from Asheville, NC on 2010-06-21
If you are brand new to bellydance, I highly recommend this DVD. I have had several bellydance DVDs, and use different ones for different reasons, but I'd rate this one very high in the "practice the basics while enjoying yourself" category ... it gives a very nice fundamental dance vocabulary for your body and dance, to practice and build on as time goes by ... I find all of the teachers and the instructions to be very pleasant and good as well ... There are pointers and some instruction, most especially in the technique breakdown ... It's nice because you are having fun and feeling good while learning and increasing your skill ... Also it provides a healthy dose of how moves affect your body (internal and external) and encourages self expression and Love ... Om Shanti

The Oscar-winning motion picture "SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE" touched so many of us and will remain forever in our hearts. With SLUMDOG WORKOUT, you can bring these catchy sounds right into your class. It combines pumped up versions of the motion picture's tracks along with other Indian-influenced dance songs. It's a rumbling hybrid of Bollywood and dance with mostly upbeat instrumentals and some Hindi vocals. Especially noteworthy is the dance remix version of the ballad "Dreams on Fire" which concludes the workout. Overall this compilation is a fine piece of world music capturing the true essence of Bollywood. It is exciting, fast-paced and if you don't want to move to this music, then check your pulse.

The best stretching video I have found.

by Cynthia Danute Cekauskas, LCSW from Savannah, Georgia on 2009-09-23
Years ago after purchasing Runner's World BREAKTHROUGH STRETCHING I did not think I could find a better tape to help me stretch my body in preparation for/or following a more intense workout such as speedwalking or running. Karen Voight's PURE AND SIMPLE STRETCH is simply outstanding. I consider it to be a rival to BREAKTHROUGH STRETCHING.

It's nice that Karen includes men in her workout. My husband and I are both over 50 and regular stretching becomes more and more important every day. This tape is wonderful too in that it is not too long. It is 35 minutes of careful instruction. Modifications for those who cannot do some of the more advanced stretches are also included. I have found that as a female I am more flexible than my husband. He appreciates that there is someone out there that undestands his limitations and is willing to accomodate him in his efforts to better increase his flexibility. I would therefore strongly reoommend this tape to BOTH women AND men.

Reviews

For those who are confused by conflicting reviews...

by Nix76 from on 2010-08-21
I was reading through the many reviews of this DVD and realized that I've actually owned Yoga Burn for about 2 years and never used it! I think what happened was I bought Yoga Burn at the same time I bought Yee's Advanced Yoga DVD Rodney Yee - Advanced Yoga. It only took me 2 minutes of previewing the Advanced DVD to stop it and put it away. I put the Burn DVD on the shelf with it, assuming that it would be equally difficult; they'd been collecting dust together ever since!

But reading the other reviews recently made me realize that I can probably do the Burn DVD, so I pulled it out and tried it (the Advanced Yoga DVD is still collecting dust, and will probably be for many years to come).

Now that I've tried the Burn DVD, I understand what the debate is about, and I think I can help bring some clarity for those who are wondering if they should purchase it.

1. For those who are afraid it will be too difficult: this DVD CAN be done by beginner-level folks!! The entire DVD is comprised of basic poses. The difficulty only comes from having to hold them for a longer period of time. As you practice, you will gain strength, flexibility, and the agility you will need for transitioning from pose to pose. If it's too difficult at first, just do as much as you can and you will eventually do the whole thing with purpose, integrity, and grace.

2. For those who are afraid it will be too easy: ok, I may not be the MOST fit person in the world. But I'm fit enough to do Yee's Power/Total Body Workout or Shiva Rea's Fire Practice without collapsing! If this DVD is practiced with purpose and you INTENTIONALLY use the muscles that the poses are designed to target, you will not be able to help but feel a burn. Now, exactly how MUCH burn will depend on your fitness level, but there's no way you won't generate some heat.

3. For those who are afraid there won't be enough instruction: Yee explains during the introduction that the main focus of this DVD is in the slow, purposeful TRANSITIONING from one pose to the next. I take this to mean that people who purchase this video should already be familiar with basic poses as well as with how to breathe.

If you are not familiar with basic poses and breathing, then you should also purchase Yoga for Beginners (Patricia Walden's DVD is an exceptional source of basic instruction Yoga for Beginners, Yoga Journal - Yoga Practice for Flexibility). But don't let that stop you from purchasing Yoga Burn. Once you've mastered the poses and breathing, you can pop in the Burn video when you're in the mood for a good, extremely low-impact workout that will improve your strength, flexibility, and mindfulness.

4. For the folks who are afraid it will be boring: I'm not a big Dr. Phil fan, but I agree with him when he says that "bored people are usually BORING people." If you're getting too used to ANY video that you practice, just make a choice to spice it up! Creative folks who are very familiar with a DVD and its poses will naturally begin to alter the poses to make them more advanced or more interesting.

Of course, I can't speak for anyone else, but I myself did not find this one boring. Actually it was a welcome (albeit temporary) break from my ongoing (and ever-intensifying) love affair with Shiva Rea Shiva Rea: Daily Energy - Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Shiva Rea: Yogini, Yoga Shakti, Shiva Rea - Fluid Power - Vinyasa Flow Yoga.

Anyway, to sum it all up...for those who are wondering if they should buy Yoga Burn: Just Do It! Hope this helps : )

Its very good!

by Adriana from on 2010-07-24
I think Yoga Burn is really good. I didn't give it a 5 starts because I would like it to be a little more challenging, maybe more repetition and more abs, but I guess that's why they made a Yoga Abs
This one really works though, it has tone my body rather quickly, and it is good for people that is returning to work out after being off for awhile.

still my favorite yoga dvd

by just me from NJ on 2010-07-22
I've had this dvd for the past four years. I haven't practiced yoga in a year or so because life just got very busy. However, I decided to start practicing again today and went back to this dvd. After four years, this is still one of my favorite yoga dvds. The poses are simple enough for beginners, but still a good work out for intermediate students. Since it is a slow pace you have to hold your poses longer, which means build more control over your muscles.

The poses you need to know are simple beginner's poses: downward dog, warrior poses, boat pose, chair pose, forward bend, staff, single leg staff, etc.

Right now, my muscles are complete jello, and I have a feeling they will just be sore tomorrow. SO instead I will do a combination of 1 session of AM Yoga for your week (also Rodney Yee) and the Beginner's Yoga (also by Rodney Yee) tomorrow and go back to Yoga Burn the day after. My goal is to work my way back up to Power Yoga (also by Rodney Yee) which is a lot harder workout.

Fantastic! Easy enough for intermediate yoga students but challenging enough for advanced! Relaxing, challenging, perfect! I feel so relaxed despite sweating through this dvd. Wish he included modifications though.

cultivate patience, stillness and strength at the same time

by Alex Grayson from Los Angeles, CA on 2010-07-10
I am an intermediate level yoga practitioner, having done both hatha and kundalini for many years, and I generally favor a vigorous, moderately paced vinyasa flow class or kundalini class so this was a whole new experience for me. True, I love and do the original Power Yoga series by Bryan Kest and he holds the postures for long stretches of time, but the entire tempo of this DVD is uniquely and intentionally slow. Now often it's easy to associate slow with easy, and all yoga is essentially easy because you should only be doing what you can in the moment, but this practice is actually very challenging and a valuable tool for building physical strength. Being a reformed gym rat, I compare this to training with heavier weights for very slow reps (emphasizing the negative resistance) and just a few reps per move as opposed to using lighter weight and higher reps. One builds a base of strength, the other develops stamina and sculpts. Both are immensely important aspects of physical training of any kind.

This DVD begins with seated ab-work and twists, and I love that he does navel poses right away when you have your full strength for maximum safety. He gradually moves you into standing postures and it's really a new experience for me to not just hold poses a bit longer, but to move in and out of them with such stillness, slowness and mindfulness. That last aspect strikes me as a somewhat hidden benefit here as well; you are absolutely forced into maximum presence when you move this slowly, just to keep your form in tact, thus making this into both a physically strengthening series and a powerful form of moving meditation. I found that my daily frustrations melted away as I had to intently focus on my movements with this, and that feels truly liberating.

I also enjoy the unobtrusive and lovely music in the background. The set is aesthetically pleasing and you even have the option of either detailed instruction by Yee or just hearing him call out the basic posture names/descriptions if you would like a more quiet practice. And of course, as always Rodney demonstrates every pose and every graceful move in and out of them with perfect form. I find him inspiring without being intimidating, he never radiates ego like some teachers.

I think beginners can do this DVD safely if they do listen to what he's saying on the detailed instruction track, and I also think that an intermediate practitioner can benefit greatly from this class as a form of muscle confusion and slowing down their practice to focus on form. I find that even after over 20 years of practice, I personally fall prey to the tendency to rush through a vinyasa or a class at times and when we do that, we can lose crucial form factors very easily without noticing and we also miss out on the benefit of moving in and out of poses more mindfully.

I plan to alternate this with the vinyasa flow classes I also enjoy, and in that have the perfect yin and yang energies in my own home practice.

Not a fan!

by ania from MI, USA on 2010-07-22
I am an active person doing running/swimming/Pilate religiously 6 times a week. I used the first two ten minutes of this DVD twice and every time I did the routines, I had a very very sore knee afterward. The pain is not in any of the thigh muscles as I was hoping for but inside of my knees. The workouts in the ten minutes were very boring with not much variation. I personally don't think any workout that is causing a joint pain not the muscle soreness is healthy to do.

G-R-E-A-T!

by KJL Taicho from the heart of the world on 2010-07-05
I take live classes at Exhale Spa and have most of the DVDS except for the next two coming out and boy this one is the best.

The series of leg works and gluteal shapers truly do work.

They burn but in a good way.

5 workouts for legs and butt with a pretzel section (which is lovely for the waist as well) you can do all together or seperate parts.

I like to mix workouts on this dvd with the other Core Fusion workouts to make up an hr, which the normal live class usually is.

You do alot more in live classes but these are good for home practicing.

The zen nature and burn nature added together gives a nice atmosphere

Not good for the back!

by lisam5305@yahoo.com from on 2010-05-17
I did this workout when it came on Fit TV. That was 3 days ago and I have had moderate lower back pain ever since. I am a reasonably fit person and I do yoga regularly, so it's not a question of my fitness level/form or flexibility. I do not recommend this to anyone!!

BORING! Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

by Laurie Naiden from CT on 2010-03-25
I wish I could return this DVD. You have these two people Elizabeth & Fred doing and going thru each exercise and explaining how each one is done. Fred is doing a little advanced version. It is being narrated by the both of them. There is no talking between them thru the whole taping of the DVD. They stare at each other thru the whole exercise. The woman (Elizabeth) has this grin on her face the whole time! I just didn't understand why they didn't converse not once. I didn't like this DVD at all! IT WAS BORING! WAKE ME UP! A LITTLE MOTIVATION PLEASE!!!

Not as good as...

by C. Toneys from on 2010-03-13
Core Fusion Body Sculpt - which I absolutley LOVE & that's why I ordered Thighs & Glutes. Many of the "small movements & hip rotations" are diffiult to see on the dvd. Hard to know if you are doing something correctly. Maybe some different camera angles would have been helpful - instead of just a side view? I also found some of the stretches very awkward. Love Elisabeth & Fred though & looking forward to the new Lean & Toned dvd.

Lipo-6 Black Hers

its working

by kay from on 2010-09-01
i have just started taking lipo 6 blacks hers and today is only my second day i am suprised to say that i physically have to make myself eat somethng i am never hungry i dont feel nausous or ne thng i just dnt feel like eating as far as an energy boost its not wild but it keeps me up and going and well obviously its to early to see any results but i will post again in a few weeks and share my results, this is my first time taking a diet supplemnt so i guess we will see

Great Product, great results

by Elle from on 2010-08-22
I have been taking Lipo 6 black hers for a bout 4 months now. I am 5 '7 and started out at about 150lbs, I am now down to 133 lbs! Thats 17 POUNDS!! I have been trying to lose weight for years and have tried countless diets and pills.. this is the only one that has actually WORKED for me!!

You can't just take this product then expect results though.. I also combine 5 or 6 days of 30-60 minutes of cardio a week, I also do resistance training about 2-3 days a week. also watching what i eat is key but i do not have a strict diet of any sort. this supplement suppresses my appetite and gives me crazy energy to work out. I only take about 3 capsules a day 2 in the morning and one around lunch and its great! never have had bad side effects or trouble sleeping. This is a great product and strongly recommend to people looking for a boost with their weight loss!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Love it!

by Pearlypoo from on 2010-08-19
I have tried diet pills in the past (Xenadrine,Hydroxycut) all of which have been very extreme in side effects. Mostly feeling very jittery but also nauseous and in some cases "out of sorts". I decided to give Lipo-6 a try because with my diet and exercise alone I had hit a plateau and was getting frustrated with the lack of results. Once I gave them a shot, I was hooked!. It was just the type of boost I needed. It gave me so much energy. Before I started taking them, I'd wake up every morning feeling fatigue. Once I started Lipo-6 I never had the feeling of fatigue or lack of energy. I always felt pumped for my workouts and wanted to go longer and do more with my workouts! It surpressed my appetite on top of that as well. I was hungry less, which in return caused me to eat smaller meals throughout the day. I dropped about 20lbs within 2 months while on Lipo-6. I felt it doubled my weight loss. It is not a miracle pill but it aboslutley gives a boost to an existing work out.

If you are sensitive to caffine, it can irritate your stomach by jumping straight to the maximum dose or taking it on an empty stomach. I'd suggest starting out slow and gradually increasing to get a feel for what your body can handle. I am extremely caffine sensitive so I started off the first week with one pill at breakfast and one pill at dinner. Week two was two at breakfast and two at dinner and week three was three at breakfast and three at dinner. There were days I'd miss a dose or two and tried jumping back in to the same dose when I got back on track and it caused slight nauseous.

I'm ordering more of it now, that's how pleased I was with the results!

Great Product!!!

by teenynorris from Irmo, SC on 2010-08-18
These are best diet pills I've tried since they took ephedra off the market!! I started them in April 2010, taking 2 per day for the first few weeks then moving to 2 in the AM and 2 in the afternoon. (I've never taken more than 2 at a time)... I've lost a total of 20 lbs on these thus far! LOVE them!!!!!!!

Hydroxycut Hardcore X

Reviews

counterproductive

by hachimachi from new york city on 2010-08-17
I work out at least 5 times a week and I am on a healthy diet. I took Hydroxycut after reading the reviews hoping that it would help me shed some stubborn fat. I started out with just one pill per day which didn't really have many effects except a slight buzz in my head. Once I upped the dosage to 2 pills, I felt terrible. I was extremely lightheaded and it was counterproductive because I did not have enough energy to work out. I gave it another try after that, just to make sure it was the pill and not something else, and it yet again I was extremely tired and lightheaded. Needless to say I did not take the pills long enough to see any results. I drink at least a gallon of water a day and I took less recommended dose and it still made me sick. If you are going to buy this product, which I advise against, do so with caution. If you just want a quick fix, quickly learn that there is no such thing, just cook healthy meals, don't drink soda, and get some exercise and the weight will come off.

Be careful when reading reviews, several of them can be fake ones made by the company selling product. Click on the user to see if they have reviewed anything else, or another product from the same company.

Happy Pills

by Eric J. Berlinski from on 2010-08-13
Ah Hydroxycut, the red flag of the diet industry. Let me tell you about me, then it.
I am 21, 6-0, ~300lbs. I rarely take the "recommended dosage." I started off taking one-a-day before workouts, then building to one in the morning and one before a workout. I lift a lot, instead of cardio, and I will tell you in the first few weeks of diligence, I did notice results.

I started working more, so the gym became less of a priority. I took some time off the hydroxycut, then went back to taking one in the mornings. The pill is amazing in the fact that it keeps me ALERT, but not jittery. I take one with breakfast and one with lunch, and my workday becomes a whole lot easier.

The trick is to not develop a tolerance and to eat properly. Exercise ALWAYS helps. Don't go thinking one pill will make you burn calories by sitting on your ass.

I have taken the past recipe of Hydroxycut (one that was discontinued) and this, HHX, and I use the same techniques and notice moderate, but satisfying results. The one truly bad thing is if you eat these on an empty stomach, you are bound to have the most disgusting burps ever, so don't do that. =)

Good luck and enjoy.

good stuff

by byron from tallahassee on 2010-07-31
Package delivered on time. Good quality product. All the capsules are in good shapes no broken ones. If you take the pills on time and keep a good diets and exercises this will give you a boost. The only thing you have to be concerned is that you will be going to the toilet more often that you use to be.

Good but prepare for the side effects

by James from California on 2010-07-17
I just started using this a couple of hours ago. I took 2 pills and I felt nothing for the first hour. But then in the start of the 2nd hour I felt my heart pounding all of a sudden. It felt like I was about to have a heart attack. But after I felt that feeling I just got up, and started walking around. 5 minutes later I felt like running 20 miles straight. So yes, this product works, but you WILL FEEL THE SIDE EFFECTS. Don't panic when your heart starts racing. Just get up and start walking around.

I'll probably update this.

Excellent Weightloss

by Salman from on 2010-07-15
This product was exactly as described. The shipping was incredible fast and the product is working perfectly. I have been using hydroxycut now for 1 month and am seeing results. It is so much cheaper than GNC and i have amazon prime so it is even better. I have bought this for many of my friends as well. You feel more energetic when you use this and burn a lot of extra calories.

Clumpy and more expensive

by J. M. Nickey from Denver on 2010-08-30
This mix is overly clumpy. Which makes it a pain in the ass to mix by shaking (and who keeps a blender in their gym bag?).

It is also overpriced in comparison to Ultragen RS-Recovery which mixes and digests much more easily.

Buy the Ultragen, save money and get a better product.

Worth the money, without a doubt

by Skylar C. Scaling from Colorado Springs, CO on 2010-08-20
My primary concern about buying the recovery drink was price. "Why pay that much for drink powder?" I foolishly asked myself.

Bottom line, it tastes great, is actually very good value for a month supply, and most importantly WORKS!

Among other important ingredients and amino acids, this powder contains 2 CRITICAL ingredients: Creatine and Potassium. Potassium helps your body break down lactic acid and reduces soreness after hard workouts (which you get with P90X), and Creatine helps your muscles recover more quickly after workouts so you can work harder during the next workout.

Summary: This recovery drink will keep you from suffering after your hard workouts by allowing your body to recover quickly without soreness. Also, it tastes great. The price is actually very reasonable for what it does. And ~$50 a month isn't really a huge cost, IMO.

Taste Just Like a Dreamcicle Ice Cream on a Stick

by Roy A. Ramsey from Clover, SC on 2010-08-08
Being a woman and not use to doing P90X I really wasn't looking forward to drinking anything that was nasty tasting after the hard workout that Tony Horton puts you through. My husband and I both do the work out together and have our after exercise drink afterwards. Neither of us can't wait to drink it. To be honest I would drink this as a treat. I put 12oz. of water into a plastic measuring cup and place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes before time to get the water really cold. I take out of freezer and dump 2 scoop fulls of mix into the water/ice and put the head of the Wolf Gang Puck Bistro blender down into the cup of water and blend until all the powder is disolved which isn't too long. I make sure the blender is set on low so the water doesn't come flying out of the cup. Next I pour the liquid mix into the round container and put the top on and attach the blender to that and turn things up to high and I run it until everything is frothy. I've used a few ice cubes a couple of times but this make more of a milkshake thickness which when your hot you just want to drink down the liquid not sip on it. The lightness and cool taste is perfect for rewarding a hard workout. I've heard horror stories about health drinks but this one doesn't come close to being nasty tasting. Now I have to say this I asked my physical therapist about the drink because I went on a diet and he said that carbohydrate to protein is too high and the high sugar content was too high. Also it has simple sugars which he said was very bad for you. OTHER than that it seemed to be good for you. I know that it defintely helped in keeping the soreness down and for me that was a big factor and of course with all that sugar content you can count on having a needed pickup afterwards. My husband loves it as much as I do and even though its around $50 a tub we feel it's worth it. I'm not drinking it now because of the sugar and I really miss it!

Doesn't taste as good as they say

by Niki Pados from on 2010-07-28
I bought the GNC Version of the recovery drink, and found the tastes wasn't that great. SO i went and bought the p90x recovery drink, and was hoping for a better taste. It tastes like a bad Creamsicle.
I can barley drink it. I have to plug my nose to get it down.
If you aren't a fan of citrus shakes, then I don't recommend this drink. I know that when I run out, I'm going back to GNC. I do recommend taking the recovery drink, as it helps you body recover. I forgot to take it one day and I was really sore the next morning.
